I've booked the hotel and flights already, but no actual wedding stuff... good thing is that we're so far away, and if others are having this kind of trouble, hopefully no ones been able to book it before me! Ha!

Now to find out how many people will actually book, so we can begin the reception planning! If it's over 30, that means a private reception at $45 pp, above the $20 pp beyond the 8 for the ceremony....ouch!

    Wow! I can't figure out how to use this! Lol. I have guests flying from Toronto to Montego Bay...at least 3 that are for sure! Air Transat. Who are you flying with?

    It's always nice to hear a good review. A friend of a friend visited over Christmas and they were very impressed aswell, they said it was amazing and the food was very good.

    Yes it is going to get pretty pricey, we have 20 people coming for sure, and might get closer to 30. It will all be worth it though I'm sure!

    We're flying with Air Transat too! We'll likely be on the same flight as your guests! :)

    We are from New Brunswick, Canada! Has your wedding been confirmed yet? Ours was tentatively booked by Erika, we sent her the paperwork with a credit card number, but it's taking some time to hear back from her!

    We're from Ontario, flying out of Toronto. We had our date booked by Erika tentatively as well, we sent her all our info and it's been 3 weeks since we've heard anything. I asked my travel agent to try to contact her, and she says hopefully this week we'll hear something. Fingers crossed!

    Yes, I had asked my TA as well to try to contact her.  You'd think they would take our money in a heartbeat lol

    Same here. I had originally asked Erika for our date and she said she put it on hold for us tentatively until we sent her a deposit, which I did 3 weeks ago, and I still haven't heard from her or had a charge put through to my credit card. I am so nervous about my date and time being taken! I wish she would reply faster, it is very frustrating.

We've now started placing our guests deposits through the TA, and I need to make sure that I can secure my date for the ceremony! As well, I need to start looking at menus and deciding what we'd like to do for the reception.

     

    Thanks for any help you can provide!

    [email protected] is the email I've been getting replies from. The coordinator's name is Erika. She takes awhile to reply, I've been waiting a week to hear back from her since I sent her my deposit for the wedding.

You can select either the Poseidon or Blue Lagoon restaurant and you have it from 6-10pm. I believe the free a la carte is for a maximum of 30 persons, and there is a private buffet option which is for groups of 50 or more if you want a buffet style.

    Thank you! The coordinator did get back to me with pricing and all the menus, so this pretty much sums up what she told me.

    Hi everyone!

     

    I am getting married at the GP on May 9th, 2014 at 4 PM on the beach!  I'm so glad someone started this post for 2014 brides :)  I have been in contact with people at the GP, so I have received a lot of info from them.  If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask! 

     

    For the Ontario, Canada brides, do you mind me asking who is your travel agent?  And are there flights direct from Toronto?

    Hi! I am from Ontario, flying direct from Toronto. I'm using destinationweddings.com, dealing with Nikki, she's been great so far! I haven't been in touch with anyone at GP yet, do you know what the prices are like for a dinner reception?
